The RAAF Logistics Study. Volume 1,

Abstract

The RAAF Logistics System is a very complex human activity system which has been analysed by the Central Studies Establishment on behalf of the Defence Logistics Organization. This work, now reported on, stems from a conviction that improved decision making can flow from an enhanced and integrated understanding of the activities necessary to fulfill the objectives of the system, by those involved in it or affected by it. This particular Volume deals with the background and terms of reference of the study, and the Soft Systems Methodological approach adopted for the study. It goes on to describe the RAAF Logistics System Environment as a whole and in particular the RAAF OPerational System and the Defence Financial System, inasmuch as they constitute the environment of, and interact with, the RAAF Logistics System. Keywords: Systems analyses, Supply management, Logistics support, Australia.
